Her Legislative Council positions included chairman of the Panel on Environmental Affairs,[3] chairman of the Panel on Home Affairs, and member of the Panel on Development.[5]
Since 2000, she has been a member of Eastern DistrictCouncil, representing Kam Ping constituency. In the 2003 election, she almost lost out to Leung Kwok-hung ("Long Hair"), as part of the fallout from widespread public dissatisfaction with incumbent pro-government representatives across the board, while in the 2007 election she successfully saw off a challenge by fellow government supporter and Fujian elder Charles Chiang Yu-tui, winning 75 percent of the vote. In other elections for the seat, she has been unopposed.[7] She stepped down in 2019, and her successor was defeated in 2019 by the candidate from the Civil Party.[8]
Choy is an ardent supporter of environmental issues. She notably broke ranks with her party to vote with conservationists for the preservation of Queen's Pier. She joined democrats to oppose application for HK$50 million to fund the dismantling and relocating of the pier on 9 May 2007.[10] Choy, however, abstained in a re-submitted request for funds to dismantle and relocate Queen's Pier two weeks later. She revealed that she had been lobbied by Michael Suen and Donald Tsang; party whips did not allow her to cast an opposing vote, and the government won by 10–7.[11]
Business interests
Choy is a non-executive director of Ping Shan Tea Group, an investment holding company listed in Hong Kong.[12] Formerly Huafeng Group, a textiles company, it was acquired in 2013 by China Natural Tea Holdings Company Limited, in a reverse takeover.[13] The company was renamed to Ping Shan Tea Group Limited,[14] and Choy's position remains unchanged.
She is also an independent non-executive Director of Evershine Group Holdings Limited, and of Loudong General Nice Resources (China) Holdings Limited, as well as the founder and managing director of Oriental-Western Promotions Ltd (formerly SHK International Ltd).[9]
